Hi! I'm happy to help!
To first solve this, we need to make those mixed numbers improper fractions.
To make 4 1/2 an improper fraction, you have to turn 4 into halves (multiply four by 2) then add the extra half, giving you 9/2.
÷(−1
)
Now, we turn 1 3/7 into an improper fraction. We turn 1 into sevenths (multiply 1 by 7) then add the other 3 sevenths, giving you 10/7.
÷(−
)
From here, we need to turn this problem into a multiplication problem in order to solve. Since multiplication is the opposite of division, we need to get the opposite of something, so we use our second fraction and flip it.
×(−
)
Now, we multiply the top by the top, and the bottom by the bottom. (any positive multiplied by a negative gives a negative)

<u>Since we cannot simplify, our final answer is -63/20.</u>
I hope this was helpful, keep learning! :D

Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = (x+2)(x-2)
Substituting x=1 into f(x):
f(1) = 3*-1
= -3
Since -2 & 2 touch the x-axis, 1 has a negative y value, 2 has a y value of 0, and all values from 2, are positive.
Hence,
3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 are all positive. Therefore, the answer is 8
This can be confirmed with a graph, as attached below.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the mean incubation time for a type of fertilized egg kept at a certain temperature is 25 days.
Let X be the incubation time for a type of fertilized egg kept at a certain temperature is 25 days.
X is N(25, 1)
a) Normal curve is in the attached file
b) the probability that a randomly selected fertilized egg hatches in less than 23 days
=
we convert x into Z score and use std normal distn table to find probability
i.e. we can say only 2.5% proportion will hatch in less than 23 days.
